Numbers 24:10-14

English Standard Version

¹⁰ And Balak's anger was kindled against Balaam, and he ^(A)struck his hands together. And Balak said to Balaam, ^(B)“I called you to curse my enemies, and behold, you have blessed them these three times. ¹¹ Therefore now flee to your own place. I said, ^(C)‘I will certainly honor you,’ but the Lord has held you back from honor.” ¹² And Balaam said to Balak, “Did I not tell your messengers whom you sent to me, ^13 (D)‘If Balak should give me his house full of silver and gold, I would not be able to go beyond the word of the Lord, to do either good or bad ^(E)of my own will. What the Lord speaks, that will I speak’? ¹⁴ And now, behold, I am going to my people. Come, ^(F)I will let you know what this people will do to your people ^(G)in the latter days.”
